Green projects, green boroughs

LBFN’s next meeting takes place at the Women’s Interfaith Network next Monday 31st January.

We’ll be hearing from some truly inspiring projects from across the capital’s boroughs – Croydon, Tower Hamlets, Lambeth and pan-London – and about work inspired by Islam, Buddhism, Christianity and Judaism (possibly Sikhism, too – tbc), supported by local authorities and local people.

We’ll also have time for information sharing, to say hello to new members and to hear about a couple of initiatives in London.

We need to let WIN know the names of people attending, so if you haven’t yet let the Convener know you’re coming, please do so asap – see you there!

The environment – LBFN’s next meeting 31st January 2011

The Women’s Interfaith Network has kindly offered its HQ in Victoria for LBFN’s next meeting on the morning of Monday 31st January – thank you Jackie and all at WIN :)

The theme will be green.  We’ll be hearing about the environmental work across London which local religious people and local authorities are involved in.

Add a comment here or let the Convener know if you’re planning to come along – we need to give a list of names in advance.  We’ll send details to everyone who has registered.
